The impression given that these regulatory agencies, Aneel, Anatel and others, are at the service, not of the Brazilian people, but of corporations with economic power! People have already paid for the electricity infrastructure a long time ago, and to this day, this investment is charged to the consumer's bill.
What about the extension of the start of validity of Law 14300 to July/23, in the Senate?
Solar energy is a gift from God, taxes cannot be charged only on industrialized materials to capture energy and distribute it.
